Protect: Protection of the environment from ionising radiation in a regulatory context

The EC EURATOM Framework 6 funded PROTECT project (FI6R036425) set out to develop dose rate thresholds for wildlife to help to determine the risk of exposure to ionising radiation. Without such criteria any radiological protection framework for the environment cannot be applied usefully in a regulatory context. The PROTECT consortium consisted of five organisations: Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UK), Environment Agency (England and Wales), IRSN (France), Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority (Norway) and the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (Sweden).

All of the outputs from the PROTECT project can be accessed from the following links:
